Black Poetry : God's Gift to Me

Never in a hundred poems
A thousand lines each
Could I tell you what you mean to me
How proud I am to say, "You're my man"
Of course there are some things about you that I don't like
But I'll live with it because that's a part of life
True love is when you accept someone completely
The good and the bad, the happy along with the sad
I know beyond a doubt that you were seent for me
Molded and shaped to be exactly what I need
Your past may not be all that pretty
But if you didn't go through lifes nitty gritty
You wouldn't be the man you are to me
So no matter what anyone says I'll be
There by your side swallowing my pride because for me
This love is ride or die
Imma be around to see you rise oh so high
Because in you I see the potential even if no one else does
I'll always have your back and be there to give that nudge
The reason why is, you were sent to me by God
I asked for charactersitstics and qualities in a man
You possess them all, from you almond shaped eyes
To your perfectly formed lips
From you street smart swagger to your Malcolm X twist
From your love of music to your poetic prowess
So see I know God sent you to me for me
Those chicks from your past didn't last
Because God had plans for you and me from the start.
